For this, in an engine cooling system for a vehicle 100 according to various embodiments of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, a water pump 103 that supplies an engine 101 with coolant is disposed at a coolant inlet side of the engine 101, and a radiator 105 is disposed to cool heated coolant passing the engine 101 through heat exchange with outside air.

Here, an engine cooling system for a vehicle 100 according to various embodiments of the present invention further includes a control valve 107, a first passage 109, a transmission oil cooler (TOC) 111, a second passage 113, and a heater 119.

In the meantime, the control valve 107 is disposed at a coolant outlet side of the engine 101 to control flow of coolant that is exhausted from the engine 101.

The first passage 109 connects the control valve 107 with the radiator 105 and connects the radiator 105 with the water pump 103.

In various embodiments, the TOC 111 is disposed between an outlet side of the radiator 105 and the water pump 103 in the first passage 109.

The second passage 113 connects the TOC 111 with the control valve 107 and bypasses the radiator to direct supply the TOC 111 with coolant that is exhausted from the engine 101.

Further, the heater 119 is disposed in a third passage 117 that connects the control valve 107 with the water pump 103.

Here, the control valve 107 can be a motorized passage control type 3-way valve, and the passages 109, 113, and 117 are selectively opened/closed or their opening rates can be respectively controlled by the control valve 107 such that flow rate of the high temperature coolant of the engine 101 is accurately controlled.

Meanwhile, in various embodiments, an engine oil cooler (EOC) 115 can be disposed on the second passage 113 that connects the control valve 107 with the first passage 109 between the TOC 111 and the water pump 103.

The EOC 115 can be disposed in parallel with the TOC 111, and the coolant of the radiator 105 can be distributed to the EOC 115 and the TOC 111.

Hereinafter, an operating and control method of an engine cooling system for a vehicle 100 according to various embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3.

FIG. 2 shows an operating condition of an engine cooling system in each summer mode for explaining a control method of an engine cooling system for a vehicle according to various embodiments of the present invention, and FIG. 3 shows an operating condition of an engine cooling system in each winter mode for explaining a control method of an engine cooling system for a vehicle according to various embodiments of the present invention.

Referring to the drawings, the control method of an engine cooling system for a vehicle according to various embodiments of the present invention control controls flow of coolant by controlling the control valve 107 in accordance with a season mode of a vehicle in an engine cooling system 100 for a vehicle as described above.

Here, the season mode can be divided into a summer engine warm-up mode, a summer oil warm-up mode, a summer coolant temperature control mode, a summer maximum cooling performance demand mode, a winter engine warm-up mode, a winter engine warm-up mode, a heating mode, a heating and oil heating mode, and a heating and coolant temperature control mode.

Firstly, in the summer engine warm-up mode and the winter engine warm-up mode, as shown in S1 of FIG. 2 and S10 of FIG. 3, the control valve 109 controls the first, second, and third passage 109, 113, and 117 such that the coolant is not exhausted from the engine 101 to quickly raise the temperature of the engine 101.

Accordingly, in the summer and winter engine warm-up mode, the coolant does not reach the radiator 105 or the TOC 111, and a cylinder head, a cylinder block, and a metal surface of the engine 101 is quickly warmed up by the coolant.

In the summer oil warm-up mode of various embodiments, as shown in S2 of FIG. 2, the control valve 107 closes the first and third passages 109 and 117 and opens the second passage 113, so the heated coolant of the engine 101 circulates in the TOC 111 and the EOC 115, and the transmission oil and engine oil are heated by the coolant flowing in the TOC 111 and the EOC 115.

Here, the EOC 115 is disposed in parallel with the TOC 111 such that the coolant flowing in the first passage 109 and the second passage 113 is uniformly supplied to them with a predetermined flow rate.

Accordingly, in the summer oil warm-up mode, the high temperature coolant that is exhausted from the engine 101 circulates in the TOC 111 and the EOC 115 to heat the transmission oil and the engine oil, and therefore the waste heat of the engine quickly raises the temperature of each oil without an oil heating device.

In this case, the first passage 109 and the third passage 117 are closed, the coolant is prevented from being supplied to the radiator 105 and the heater 119, the high temperature coolant is supplied to the TOC 111 and the EOC 115, and therefore the oil is efficiently heated by the coolant.

In the summer coolant temperature control mode according to various embodiments, as shown in S3 of FIG. 2, the control valve 107 opens the first passage 109 that is connected to the radiator 105 and the second passage 113 such that the heated coolant of the engine 101 is mixed with the cooled coolant of the radiator 105 to be supplied to the TOC 111 and the engine 101.

Here, the coolant temperature that is supplied to the EOC 115 through the first passage 109 and the second passage 113 can vary and the flowing rate of the coolant can vary.

Accordingly, in the summer coolant temperature control mode, the high temperature coolant of the engine 101 is distributed by the control valve 107 to be supplied to the radiator 105, the TOC 111, and the EOC 115, and the temperature of the coolant that is supplied the engine 101 is controlled within an appropriate range.

In the summer maximum cooling performance mode according to various embodiments, as shown in S4 of FIG. 2, the control valve 109 opens the first passage 109 such that the coolant of the engine 101 is supplied to the radiator 105 in a maximum flow rate, and the cooled coolant of the radiator 105 passes the TOC 111 and the EOC 115 to be supplied to the engine 101 again.

That is, the summer maximum cooling performance mode demands maximum cooling performance of the engine 101, wherein all coolant of the engine 101 is supplied to the radiator 105 by the control valve 107 and all coolant that is supplied to the engine 101 is cooled by the outside air.

In this process, the flow rate of the coolant passing the radiator 105 can be maximized and the coolant cooled by the radiator 105 passes the TOC 111 and the EOC 115 to improve their oil cooling efficiency.

Meanwhile, in the summer maximum cooling performance mode, the third passage 117 is closed and the heated coolant is prevented from being supplied to the heater 119, and therefore the cooling performance can be improved.

Further, in the winter engine warm-up and heating mode according to various embodiments, as shown in S20 of FIG. 3, the control valve 107 opens the third passage 117 so as to improve the heating performance, and the heated coolant of the engine 101 passes the heater 119 to be supplied to the engine 101 again.

Thus, the high temperature coolant of the engine 101 passes the heater 119 and the interior heating efficiency is improved.

Simultaneously, the coolant passes the heater 119 to be supplied to the engine 101 in a condition in which the temperature is sustained higher than a predetermined value, and therefore the engine 101 can be quickly warmed up.

In the winter heating and oil heating mode according to various embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, the control valve 107 opens the second passage 113 and the third passage 117 such that the high temperature coolant of the engine 101 is supplied to the TOC 111, the EOC 115, and the heater 119 and the coolant circulates in the engine 101 again.

Accordingly, an appropriate flow rate of the high temperature of the engine 101 is supplied to the second and third passages 113 and 117 by the control valve 107.

Thus, the high temperature coolant passes the TOC 111 and EOC 115 to heat oil and passes the heater 119 to improve heat exchange efficiency for heating interior air.

Here, the control valve 107 controls the opening rate of the second and third passage 113 and 117 to increase the flow rate of the coolant that is used for heating oil in a case that the fuel consumption efficiency is to be improved or an interior heating load is low.

Also, in the winter heating and coolant temperature control mode, as shown S40 of FIG. 3, the control valve 107 opens the first, second, and third passage 109, 113, and 117 such that the coolant circulates in the radiator 105, the TOC 111, the EOC 115, and the heater 119.

Accordingly, the temperature of the coolant circulating in the passages 109, 113, and 117 is appropriately sustained to circulate in the engine 101.

Accordingly, an engine cooling system for a vehicle and the control method thereof according to various embodiments of the present invention 100 efficiently uses waste heat of an engine 101 and controls the flow direction and the flow rate of coolant in accordance with an engine warm-up process and an engine operating process to offer optimized cooling conditions such that cooling performance, air-conditioning performance, and heating performance of an engine are improved and fuel consumption is reduced.

Also, a motorized passage 3-way valve type of control valve 107 is applied instead of a thermostat valve, and the control valve 107 quickly controls the flow direction and the flow rate of coolant according to driving conditions to improve reliability of valve operation and efficiency of the entire system.

Also, a coolant passage is formed to connect an engine 101, a radiator 105, a TOC 111, and an EOC 115 such that coolant that is exhausted from an engine 101 and a radiator 105 is effectively supplied to a transmission oil cooler (TOC) 111 and an engine oil cooler (EOC) 115, wherein the layout of the system becomes simple, coolant is supplied to each constituent element in accordance with driving conditions, and the flow rate of the coolant can be maximized.
